NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which may be identified by the use of such words as “may,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “consider,” “should,” “plan,” “estimate,” “predict,” “continue,” “probable,” and “potential” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, estimates with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Metropolitan Commercial Bank (the “Bank”), share repurchases under the Company’s share repurchase program, dividend payments and the Company’s strategies, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, and other statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that are difficult to predict and are generally beyond our control and that may cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ from those results expressed or implied include those factors listed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025 and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, these factors include but are not limited to:

| ● | a failure to successfully manage our credit risk and the sufficiency of our allowance for credit losses;

| ● | changes in loan demand and declines in real estate values in the Company’s market area, which may adversely affect our loan production;

| ● | borrower and depositor concentrations (e.g., by geographic area and by industry);

| ● | the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve and other regulatory bodies;

| ● | general economic conditions, including unemployment rates, and potential recessionary and inflationary indicators, either nationally or locally, including the related effects on our borrowers and other clients, such as adverse changes to credit quality, and on our financial condition and results of operations;

| ● | an unanticipated loss of key personnel or existing clients, or an inability to attract key employees;

| ● | system failures or cybersecurity breaches of our information technology infrastructure and/or confidential information or those of the Company’s third-party service providers or those of our non-bank financial service clients for which we provide global payments infrastructure;

| ● | failure to maintain current technologies or technological changes and enhancements that may be more difficult or expensive to implement than anticipated, and failure to successfully implement future information technology enhancements;

| ● | emerging issues related to the development and use of artificial intelligence that could give rise to legal or regulatory action, damage our reputation or otherwise materially harm our business or clients;

| ● | the timely and efficient development of new products and services offered by the Company, as well as risks (including reputational and litigation) attendant thereto, and the perceived overall value and acceptance of these products and services by clients;

| ● | the successful implementation or consummation of new business initiatives, which may be more difficult or expensive than anticipated;

| ● | an unexpected adverse financial, regulatory, legal or bankruptcy event experienced by our financial service clients;

| ● | unexpected increases in our expenses;

| ● | changes in liquidity, including funding sources, deposit flows and the size and composition of our deposit portfolio, and the percentage of uninsured deposits in the portfolio;

4

Table of Contents

| ● | an unexpected deterioration in the performance of our loan or securities portfolios and our inability to absorb the amount of actual losses inherent in the portfolio;

| ● | difficulties associated with achieving or predicting expected future financial results;

| ● | different than anticipated growth and our ability to manage our growth;

| ● | increases in competitive pressures among financial institutions or from non-financial institutions which may result in unanticipated changes in our loan or deposit rates;

| ● | unexpected adverse impacts related to future acquisitions or divestitures;

| ● | impacts related to or resulting from regional and community bank failures and stresses to regional banks, or conditions in the securities markets or the banking industry being less favorable than currently anticipated;

| ● | changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines may cause the Company’s financial condition or results of operation to be reported or perceived differently;

| ● | legislative, tax or regulatory changes or actions, including changes and the potential for changes to regulatory policy and the promulgation of new laws and regulations following the inauguration of a new presidential administration, may adversely affect the Company’s business;

| ● | unanticipated increases in FDIC insurance premiums or future assessments;

| ● | the costs, including the possible incurrence of fines, penalties, or other negative effects (including reputational harm) of any adverse judicial, administrative, or arbitral rulings or proceedings, regulatory enforcement actions, or other legal actions to which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party, and which may adversely affect our results; and

| ● | the current or the potential impact on the Company’s operations, financial condition, and clients resulting from natural or man-made disasters, climate change, wars, military conflict, acts of terrorism, other geopolitical events, cyberattacks, and global pandemics, or localized epidemics.

​

The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effects of its plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. As such, forward-looking statements can be affected by inaccurate assumptions made, or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect conditions only as of the date of this filing. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this document. The Company undertakes no obligation (and expressly disclaims any obligation) to publicly release the results of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements, except as may be required by law.

NOTE 2 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with GAAP and predominant practices within the U.S. banking industry. The Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (“unaudited financial statements”) include the accounts of the Company and the Bank. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q, Article 8 of Regulation S-X and predominant practices within the U.S. banking industry. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The unaudited financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

In preparing the interim unaudited financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management has made estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reported periods, and actual results could differ from those estimated. Information available which could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy, inflation and its related effects and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.

Some items in the prior year financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Reclassification had no effect on prior year net income or stockholders’ equity.

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the entire fiscal year or for any other period.

The unaudited financial statements presented in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 as filed with the SEC.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company aggregates loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. Except for one-to four-family loans and consumer loans, the Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk ratings at least annually. For one-to four-family loans and consumer loans, the Company evaluates credit quality based on the aging status of the loan. An analysis is performed on a quarterly basis for loans classified as special mention, substandard or doubtful. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings. Loans not meeting these definitions are considered to be pass-rated loans.

Special Mention - Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the Company’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard - Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful - Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values highly questionable and improbable.

Federal funds purchased are generally overnight transactions and had a weighted average interest rate of 4.15% at September 30, 2025. The FHLBNY advances are short-term transactions and have a fixed weighted average interest rate of 4.25%.

Secured borrowings are loan participation agreements with counterparties where the transfer of the participation interest did not qualify for sale treatment under GAAP.

The Federal Reserve established the Bank Term Funding Program (“BTFP”) on March 12, 2023 as a funding source for eligible depository institutions. The BTFP provided short-term liquidity (up to one year) against the par value of certain high-quality collateral, such as U.S. Treasury securities. The BTFP ceased making new loans as scheduled on March 11, 2024. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had no outstanding FRB term loans under the BTFP.

At September 30, 2025, the Company had cash on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and available secured wholesale funding borrowing capacity of $3.2 billion.

NOTE 7 —  STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On July 17, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan with authorization to purchase up to $50 million of the Company’s common stock. In aggregate, the Board of Directors has authorized $100 million of share repurchases since March 2025. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 39,166 shares of the Company’s common stock at an average cost of $69.27 per share. At September 30, 2025, treasury stock at cost was $53.3 million. At September 30, 2025, $47.3 million remained available under the currently authorized share repurchase plan.

​

The Company may repurchase shares of common stock from time to time on the open market or by other means in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions, including, in part, under a Rule 10b5-1 plan. The number of shares to be repurchased and the timing of additional repurchases, if any, will depend on several factors, including market conditions, prevailing share price, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other considerations. The share repurchase plan has no expiration date, may be discontinued or suspended at any time and does not obligate the Company to acquire any amount of its common stock.

NOTE 8 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company uses the two-class method in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class method, earnings available to common shareholders for the period are allocated between common shareholders and participating securities according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The factors used in the earnings per share calculation are as follows (in thousands, except per share data).

​

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, all performance based restricted stock units and restricted stock units were considered in computing diluted earnings per common share, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, 24,420 of performance restricted stock units were not considered in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE 9 — STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN

Equity Incentive Plan

At September 30, 2025, the Company maintained two stock compensation plans, the Amended and Restated 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 EIP”), and the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 EIP”). The 2019 EIP expired on May 31, 2022 but has outstanding restricted stock awards subject to vesting schedules.

The 2022 EIP was approved on May 31, 2022 by the stockholders of the Company and an amendment and restatement of the 2022 EIP was approved by the stockholders of the Company on May 29, 2024 to increase the number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the plan by 358,000. The stockholders of the Company subsequently approved an amendment to the 2022 EIP on May 28, 2025 to increase the number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the plan by an additional 750,000. Under the 2022 EIP, the remaining maximum number of shares of stock that may be delivered to participants in the form of restricted stock, restricted stock units and stock options, including ISOs and non-qualified stock options is 876,921 at September 30, 2025, subject to adjustment as set forth in the 2022 EIP, plus any awards that are made available under the 2019 EIP after March 15, 2022.

Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units

The Company issued restricted stock awards and restricted stock units under the 2022 EIP and the 2019 EIP (collectively, “restricted stock grants”) to certain key personnel. Each restricted stock grant vests based on the vesting schedule outlined in the restricted stock grant agreement. Restricted stock grants are subject to forfeiture if the holder is not employed by the Company on the vesting date.

In the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, 133,359 and 168,469 restricted stock grants were issued to certain key personnel, respectively. One-third of these shares vest each year for three years beginning on March 1, 2026 and March 1, 2025, respectively. Total compensation cost that has been charged against income for restricted stock grants was $1.6 million and $4.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. Total compensation cost that has been charged against income for restricted stock grants was $1.8 million and $5.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, there was $9.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the restricted stock awards. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.98 years.

In January 2025, 27,500 restricted shares were granted to members of the Company’s Board of Directors, which fully vest one-year from the grant date. In January 2024, 27,500 restricted shares were granted to members of the Company’s Board of Directors which vested in January 2025. Total expense for the awards granted to members of the Board of Directors was $452,000 and $1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. Total expense for the awards granted to members of the Board of Directors was $341,000 and $1.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, total unrecognized expense for these awards was $452,000.

Performance-Based Stock Units

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company established a long-term incentive award program under the 2022 EIP. Under the program, 52,807 PRSUs were awarded in the first quarter of 2025, which vest over a three-year period beginning in March 2026 if certain performance criteria are met. If the performance criteria are not met, no compensation cost is recognized and any recognized compensation cost is reversed. In the second quarter of 2024, 73,260 PRSUs were awarded, of which 31,746 met the performance criteria and will vest in equal installments over a three-year period beginning in June 2025. The weighted average service inception date fair value of the outstanding awarded shares was $4.3 million. Total compensation cost that has been charged against income for these PRSUs was $578,000 and $908,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. Total compensation cost that has been charged against income for these PRSUs was $275,000 and $365,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, there was $2.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the PRSUs. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.60 years.

NOTE 10 — FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and to determine fair value disclosures. Accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring and Non-Recurring Basis

Assets measured on a recurring basis are limited to the Company’s AFS securities portfolio, equity investments, and derivative contracts. The AFS portfolio is carried at estimated fair value with any unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in shareholders’ equity. Equity investments are carried at estimated fair value with changes in fair value reported on the statements of operations. Outstanding derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges are carried at estimated fair value with changes in fair value reported as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in shareholders’ equity. Outstanding derivatives not designated as hedges are carried at estimated fair value with changes in fair value reported as non-interest income. The fair values for substantially all of these assets are obtained monthly from an independent nationally recognized pricing service. On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses the reasonableness of the fair values obtained for the AFS portfolio by reference to a second independent nationally recognized pricing service. Based on the nature of these securities, the Company’s independent pricing service provides prices which are categorized as Level 2 since quoted prices in active markets for identical assets are generally not available for the majority of securities in the Company’s portfolio. Various modeling techniques are used to determine pricing for the Company’s mortgage-backed securities, including option pricing and discounted cash flow models. The inputs to these models include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data. On an annual basis, the Company obtains the models, inputs and assumptions utilized by its pricing service and reviews them for reasonableness. Other than derivative contracts, the Company did not have any liabilities that were measured at fair value at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

From time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets or liabilities on a non-recurring basis, such as certain loans where the carrying value is based on the fair value of the underlying collateral estimated using Level 3 inputs consisting of individual third-party appraisals that may be adjusted based on certain criteria.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

Collateral dependent loans with a total amortized cost of $58.7 million at September 30, 2025 were reduced by an allowance for credit losses of $22.3 million for a reported total net carrying amount of $36.4 million. The collateral values for these loans were estimated using individual third party appraisals that utilized the sales comparison valuation technique. The Company used Level 3 inputs to estimate the fair value including discounts to the appraisals for costs to sell and other adjustments ranging from -100% to 15%, and with a weighted-average of -37%. There were no material assets and liabilities held at September 30, 2024 for which non-recurring fair value adjustments were recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value

The Company has engaged independent pricing service providers to provide the fair values of its financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value. These providers follow FASB’s exit pricing guidelines, as required by ASC 820 Fair Value Measurement, when calculating the fair market value. Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks and overnight deposits. The estimated fair values of cash and cash equivalents are assumed to equal their carrying values, as these financial instruments are either due on demand or have short-term maturities. For securities and the disability fund, if quoted market prices are not available for a specific security, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows. These pricing models primarily use market-based or independently sourced market parameters as inputs, including, but not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, equity or debt prices, and credit spreads. The estimated fair value of loans are measured at amortized cost using an exit price notion. Ownership in equity securities of the FRB and FHLB is generally restricted and there is no established liquid market for their resale. The fair values of deposit liabilities with no stated maturity (i.e., money market and savings deposits, and non-interest-bearing demand deposits) are equal to the carrying amounts payable on demand. Time deposits are valued using a replacement cost of funds approach. Trust preferred securities are valued using a replacement cost of funds approach. For all other assets and liabilities it is assumed that the carrying value equals their current fair value.

Carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments not carried at fair value were as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 12 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its clients. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the financial statements. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The following off-balance-sheet financial instruments, whose contract amounts represent credit risk, are outstanding (in thousands):

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | At September 30, 2025 | ​ | At December 31, 2024
​ | ​ | Fixed | ​ | Variable | ​ | Fixed | ​ | Variable
​ |  | Rate |  | Rate |  | Rate |  | Rate
Unused loan commitments | ​ | $ | 91,151 | ​ | $ | 603,174 | ​ | $ | 108,561 | ​ | $ | 586,821
Standby and commercial letters of credit | ​ | ​ | 27,145 | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​ | 31,920 | ​ | ​ | —
​ | ​ | $ | 118,296 | ​ | $ | 603,174 | ​ | $ | 140,481 | ​ | $ | 586,821

​

A commitment to extend credit is a legally binding agreement to lend to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. These commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements and generally expire within two years. At September 30, 2025, the Company’s fixed rate loan commitments had interest rates ranging from 3.0% to 9.3% and the Company’s variable rate loan commitments had interest rates ranging from 5.3% to 9.5%. At December 31, 2024, the Company’s fixed rate loan commitments had interest rates ranging from 3.0% to 9.3% and the Company’s variable rate loan commitments had interest rates ranging from 6.3% to 11.5%. The amount of collateral obtained, if any, by the Company upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include mortgages on commercial and residential real estate, security interests in business assets, equipment, deposit accounts with the Company or other financial institutions and securities.

The Company’s stand-by letters of credit amounted to $27.1 million and $31.9 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company’s stand-by letters of credit are collateralized by interest-bearing accounts of $22.4 million and $24.1 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Legal and Regulatory Proceedings

There have been investigations by governmental entities concerning a prepaid debit card product program that was offered by the GPG Banking-as-a-Service (“BaaS) business. These include investigations involving the Company and the Bank by the Board of Governors of the FRB and certain state authorities, including the NYSDFS. During the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, third parties used this prepaid debit card product to establish unauthorized accounts and to receive unauthorized government benefits payments, including unemployment insurance benefits payments made pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act from many states. The Company ceased accepting new accounts from this program manager in July 2020 and exited its relationship with this program manager in August 2020. The Company has cooperated in these investigations. In 2023, the Bank entered into separate consensual resolutions with each of the FRB and the NYSDFS with respect to their investigations, each of which investigations is now closed as a result of such orders. In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company also resolved an investigation by the Attorney General of the State of Washington related to this program.

In addition to the matters described above, the Company is subject to various other pending and threatened legal actions relating to the conduct of its business activities, as well as inquiries and investigations from regulators. While the future outcome of litigation or regulatory matters cannot be determined at this time, in the opinion of management, as of

September 30, 2025, the aggregate liability, if any, arising out of any such other pending or threatened matters are not expected to be material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity.

NOTE 13 — REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

All of the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers that are in the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, are recognized in non-interest income. The following table presents the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers (in thousands):

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

Service charges on deposit accounts | ​ | $ | 2,047 | ​ | $ | 2,135 | ​ | ​ | $ | 6,351 | ​ | $ | 6,092
Global Payments Group revenue | ​ |  | — | ​ |  | 3,500 | ​ | ​ |  | — | ​ |  | 11,255
Other service charges and fees | ​ |  | 438 | ​ |  | 583 | ​ | ​ |  | 2,309 | ​ |  | 2,045
Total | ​ | $ | 2,485 | ​ | $ | 6,218 | ​ | ​ | $ | 8,660 | ​ | $ | 19,392

​

A description of the Company’s revenue streams accounted for under the accounting guidance is as follows:

Service charges on deposit accounts

The Company offers business and personal retail products and services, which include, but are not limited to, online banking, mobile banking, Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) transactions, and remote deposit capture. A standard deposit contract exists between the Company and all deposit customers. The Company earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based services (such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering, and ACH fees), account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Company fulfills the client’s request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the client’s account balance.

Global payment group revenue

During 2024, the Company exited the GPG BaaS business, and only residual operational tasks remain to be completed. The Company offered corporate cash management and retail banking services and, through its global payments business, provided services to non-bank financial service companies. The Company received transaction data at the end of each month for services rendered, at which time revenue was recognized. Additionally, service charges specific to GPG customers’ deposits were recognized within GPG revenue.

Other service charges

The primary component of other service charges relates to letter of credit fees and FX conversion fees. The Company outsources FX conversion for foreign currency transactions to correspondent banks. The Company earns a portion of an FX conversion fee that the client charges to process an FX conversion transaction. Revenue is recognized at the end of the month once the client has remitted the transaction information to the Company.

NOTE 14 — DERIVATIVES

On occasion, the Company enters into derivative contracts as a part of its asset liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. At September 30, 2025, these derivatives had a notional amount of $1.2 billion and contractual maturities ranging from March 23, 2026 to August 1, 2027. The notional amount of the derivatives does not represent the amount exchanged by the parties. The derivatives were designated as cash flow hedges of certain deposit liabilities and borrowings of the Company. The hedges were determined to be highly effective during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. The Company expects the hedges to remain highly effective during the remaining term of the derivatives.

In addition, the Company periodically enters into certain commercial loan interest rate swap agreements to provide commercial loan clients the ability to convert loans from variable to fixed interest rates. Under these agreements, the Company enters into a variable-rate loan agreement with a client in addition to a swap agreement. This swap agreement effectively converts the client’s variable rate loan into a fixed rate loan. The Company then enters into a corresponding swap agreement with a third party to offset its exposure on the variable and fixed components of the client agreement. As the interest rate swap agreements with the clients and third parties are not designated as hedges, the instruments are marked to market in earnings. At September 30, 2025, these interest rate swaps have a notional amount of $69.0 million and a contractual maturity of August 15, 2028.

The following tables reflect the derivatives recorded on the balance sheet (in thousands):

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Company Background

The Company is a bank holding company headquartered in New York, New York and registered under the BHC Act. Through its wholly owned bank subsidiary, Metropolitan Commercial Bank, a New York state-chartered commercial bank, the Company provides a broad range of business, commercial and retail banking products and services to small businesses, middle-market enterprises, public entities and individuals primarily in the New York metropolitan area. See the “GLOSSARY OF COMMON TERMS AND ACRONYMS” for the definition of certain terms and acronyms used throughout this Form 10-Q.

The Company’s primary market includes the New York metropolitan area, specifically Manhattan and the outer boroughs, and Nassau County, New York. This market is well-diversified and represents a large market for middle market businesses (defined as businesses with annual revenue of $5 million to $400 million). The Company’s market area has a diversified economy with the majority of employment provided by services, wholesale/retail trade, finance/insurance/real estate, technology companies and construction. A relationship-led strategy has provided the Company with select opportunities in other U.S. markets, with a particular focus on South Florida.

The Company’s primary lending products are CRE, including multi-family loans, and C&I loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business and consumer assets, and commercial and residential real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flows from operations of commercial enterprises. The Company has developed various deposit gathering strategies, which generate the funding necessary to operate without a large branch network. In addition to traditional commercial banking products, the Company offers: corporate cash management and retail banking services; tailored financial solutions for government entities, municipalities, and public institutions; specialized services to facilitate secure and efficient real estate transactions and tax-deferred exchanges for title and escrow and Section 1031 exchanges; and EB-5 Program accounts for qualified foreign investors. The Company’s primary deposit products are checking, savings, and term deposit accounts, all of which are insured by the FDIC up to the maximum amounts allowed by law. These activities, together with six strategically located banking centers, generate a stable source of deposits to support the growth of our diverse loan portfolio.

Recent Events

On October 21, 2025, the Company publicly announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share on the Company’s common stock (the “Dividend”). The Dividend is payable on November 14, 2025 to holders of record of the Company’s common stock at the close of business on October 30, 2025.

​

On September 30, 2025, the Company announced that the Board of Directors elected Mr. Anthony J. Fabiano as independent Chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. William Reinhardt, who has served on the Board of Directors since 2013 and had held the role of Chairman since 2018, will remain a member of the Board of Directors.

​

On July 17, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan with authorization to purchase up to an additional $50 million of the Company’s common stock. In aggregate, the Board of Directors has authorized $100 million of share repurchases since March 2025. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 39,166 shares of the Company’s common stock at an average cost of $69.27 per share. At September 30, 2025, $47.3 million remained available under the currently authorized share repurchase plan.

​

The Company may repurchase shares of common stock from time to time on the open market or by other means in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions, including, in part, under a Rule 10b5-1 plan. The number of shares to be repurchased and the timing of repurchases, if any, will depend on several factors, including market conditions, prevailing share price, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other considerations. The share repurchase plan has no expiration date, may be discontinued or suspended at any time and does not obligate the Company to acquire any amount of its common stock.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting estimates are necessary in the application of certain accounting policies and procedures and are particularly susceptible to significant change. Critical accounting policies are defined as those involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that could have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the Company’s most critical accounting policy, which involves the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments, is the allowance for credit losses.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The ACL has been determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company is responsible for the timely and periodic determination of the amount of the ACL. Management believes that the ACL for loans and loan commitments is adequate to cover expected credit losses over the life of the loan portfolio. Although management evaluates available information to determine the adequacy of the ACL, the level of allowance is an estimate which is subject to significant judgment and short-term change. Because of uncertainties associated with local and national economic forecasts, the operating and regulatory environment, collateral values and future cash flows from the loan portfolio, it is possible that a material change could occur in the ACL. The evaluation of the adequacy of loan collateral is often based upon estimates and appraisals. Because of uncertain economic conditions, the valuations determined from such estimates and appraisals may change. Accordingly, the Company may ultimately incur losses that vary from management’s current estimates. Adjustments to the ACL will be reported in the period in which such adjustments become apparent and can be reasonably estimated. All loan losses are charged to the ACL when the loss actually occurs or when the collectability of principal is deemed to be unlikely. Recoveries are credited to the allowance at the time of recovery. Various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s ACL. As a result of such examinations, the Company may need to recognize additions to the ACL based on the regulators’ observations.

In estimating the ACL, the Company relies on models and economic forecasts developed by external parties as the primary driver of the ACL. These external models and forecasts are based on nationwide data sets. Economic forecasts can change significantly over an economic cycle and have a significant level of uncertainty associated with them. The performance of these models is dependent on the variables used in the models being reasonable predictors for the loan portfolio’s performance. However, these variables may not capture all sources of risk within the portfolio. As a result, the Company reviews the results and makes qualitative adjustments to capture potential limitations of the external models as necessary. Such qualitative factors may include adjustments to better capture the imprecision associated with the economic forecasts, and the ability of the models to capture emerging risks within the portfolio that may not be represented in the data. These adjustments are evaluated through the Company’s review process and revised on a quarterly basis to account for changes in forecasts, facts and circumstances.

One of the more significant judgments involved in estimating the Company’s ACL relates to the macroeconomic forecasts used to estimate credit losses and the relative weightings applied to them. To illustrate the impact of changes in these forecasts to the Company’s ACL, the Company performed a hypothetical sensitivity analysis that decreased the weight on the baseline scenario by 33% and equally allocated the difference to increase the weights on the more optimistic and adverse scenarios. All else equal, the impact of this hypothetical forecast would result in a net increase of approximately $7.4 million, or 7.8%, in the Company’s total ACL for loans and loan commitments as of September 30, 2025. This hypothetical analysis is intended to illustrate the impact of adverse changes in the macroeconomic forecasts at a point in time and is not intended to reflect the full nature and extent of potential future change in the ACL. It is difficult to estimate how potential changes in any one of the quantitative inputs or qualitative factors might affect the overall ACL and the Company’s current assessments may not reflect the potential future impact of changes to those inputs or factors.

Discussion of Financial Condition

The Company had total assets of $8.2 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $933.7 million, or 12.8%, from December 31, 2024.

Table of Contents

Total cash and cash equivalents were $385.9 million at September 30, 2025, an increase of $185.7 million, or 92.7%, from December 31, 2024. The increase from December 31, 2024 primarily reflects an increase of $1.1 billion in deposits, offset by an increase in the loan book of $747.6 million and a $175.0 million decrease in wholesale funding.

Investments

Total securities were $934.4 million at September 30, 2025, an increase of $18.7 million or 2.0%, from December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to the purchase of $125.9 million of AFS securities, and the $20.2 million unrealized gain on AFS securities during the first nine months of 2025, partially offset by the $127.7 million paydown and maturities of AFS and HTM securities.

Loans

Total loans, net of deferred fees and unamortized costs, were $6.8 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $747.6 million, or 12.4%, from December 31, 2024. The increase in total loans from December 31, 2024 was due primarily to an increase of $752.7 million in CRE loans (including owner-occupied). At September 30, 2025, 77.4% of the CRE and C&I loan portfolio was concentrated in the New York metropolitan area, mainly New York City, and Florida.

As of September 30, 2025, total loans consisted primarily of CRE loans (including multi-family mortgage loans) and C&I loans. The Company’s commercial loan portfolio includes loans to the following industries (dollars in thousands):

Allowance for Credit Losses – Loans and Loan Commitments

The ACL was $94.2 million at September 30, 2025, as compared to $63.3 million at December 31, 2024. The Company recorded a $34.7 million provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, which primarily reflects provisioning for a single out of market CRE multi-family relationship, and changes in the outlook for certain macroeconomic variables, and loan growth.

Deposits

Total deposits were $7.1 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $1.1 billion, or 18.2%, from December 31, 2024. The increase from December 31, 2024 was due primarily to increases across most of the Company’s various deposit verticals. Non-interest-bearing demand deposits were 19.5% of total deposits at September 30, 2025, compared to 22.3% at December 31, 2024.

Borrowings

To support the balance sheet, the Company may at times utilize FHLB advances or other funding sources. At September 30, 2025, the Company had $125.0 million of Federal funds purchased and $150.0 million of FHLBNY advances. At December 31, 2024, the Company had $210.0 million of Federal funds purchased and $240.0 million of FHLBNY advances.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, was $41.9 million at September 30, 2025, a decrease of $11.3 million from December 31, 2024. The decrease from December 31, 2024 was primarily due to unrealized gains on AFS securities, as a result of changes in prevailing market interest rates.

Results of Operations

Net Income

Net income was $7.1 million for the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of $5.1 million as compared to $12.3 million for the third quarter of 2024. This decrease was due primarily to a $21.2 million increase in the provision for credit losses, the absence of $3.5 million of GPG revenue as a result of the exit from that business, and a $1.8 million increase in compensation and benefits related to the increase in the number of employees, partially offset by a $12.1 million increase in net interest income, a $10.0 million decrease in the regulatory reserve recorded in the prior year period and a $1.2 million decrease in professional fees.

Net income was $42.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, a decrease of $3.1 million as compared to $45.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This decrease was due primarily to a $30.0 million increase in the provision for credit losses, the absence of $11.3 million of GPG revenue as a result of the exit from that business, and a $5.4 million increase in compensation and benefits related to the increase in the number of employees, partially offset by $31.4 million increase in net interest income, a $10.0 million decrease in the regulatory reserve recorded in the prior year period and a $5.6 million decrease in professional fees.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on assets and interest incurred on liabilities. The following table presents an analysis of net interest income by each major category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The table presents the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Yields and costs were derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, respectively, for the periods shown. Average balances were derived from daily balances over the periods indicated. Interest income includes fees that management considers to be adjustments to yields. Yields on tax-exempt obligations were not computed on a tax-equivalent basis. Non-accrual loans were included in the computation of average balances. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred loan origination fees and costs, and purchase discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income.

Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2025 was 3.88% compared to 3.62% for the third quarter of 2024. For the third quarter of 2025 the 26 basis point increase in net interest margin was driven by rigorous loan and deposit pricing initiatives and a 34 basis point decrease in the total cost of funds which reflects the reduction in short-term interest rates. Net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 3.80% compared to 3.49% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the 31 basis point increase in net interest margin was driven by rigorous loan and deposit pricing initiatives and a 24 basis point decrease in the total cost of funds which reflects the reduction in short-term interest rates.

​

Interest Income

Interest income increased $11.5 million to $132.0 million for the third quarter of 2025 as compared to $120.5 million for the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to the increase in the average balance of loans. The average balance of loans increased $801.4 million for the third quarter of 2025 as compared to the third quarter of 2024.

Interest income increased $29.3 million to $377.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to $348.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to the increase in the average balance of

loans. The average balance of loans increased $681.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $532,000 to $54.7 million for the third quarter of 2025 as compared to $55.2 million for the third quarter of 2024 due primarily to the 34 basis point decrease in total cost of funds that reflects the reduction in short- term interest rates, partially offset by the $1.1 billion increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits for the third quarter of 2025 as compared to the third quarter of 2024.

Interest expense decreased $2.2 million to $159.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to $162.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, due primarily to the 24 basis point decrease in the total cost of funds, partially offset by the $920.9 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Provision for Credit Losses – Loans and Loan Commitments

The provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $23.9 million, which reflects provisioning for a single out of market CRE multi-family loan relationship, changes in the outlook for certain macroeconomic variables, and loan growth. The provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $34.7 million, which reflects provisioning for a single out of market CRE multi-family relationship, and changes in the outlook for certain macroeconomic variables, and loan growth.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income decreased $3.8 million to $2.5 million for the third quarter of 2025, as compared to $6.3 million for the third quarter of 2024 driven primarily by the absence of GPG revenue due to the exit from that business. Non-interest income decreased $10.6 million to $8.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024 driven primarily by the absence of GPG revenue due to the exit from that business.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense decreased $5.5 million to $45.8 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to the third quarter of 2024 due primarily to a $10.0 million decrease in the regulatory reserve recorded in the prior year period and a $1.2 million decrease in professional fees, partially offset by a $2.3 million increase in technology costs, a $1.8 million increase in compensation and benefits related to the increase in the number of employees, and a $1.2 million increase in deposit program related fees.

Non-interest expense decreased $3.8 million to $131.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $135.4 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, due primarily to a $10.0 million decrease in the regulatory reserve recorded in the prior year period and a decrease of $5.6 million in professional fees, partially offset by an increase of $5.4 million in compensation and benefits related to the increase in the number of employees and a $4.1 million increase in deposit program related fees.

Income Tax Expense

The estimated effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2025 was 30.1% as compared to 30.2% for the third quarter of 2024. The estimated effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 30.0% as compared to 31.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, which involve

40

Table of Contents

elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. Exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of the instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

At September 30, 2025, the Company had $694.3 million in unused loan commitments and $27.1 million in standby and commercial letters of credit. At December 31, 2024, the Company had $695.4 million in unused commitments and $31.9 million in standby and commercial letters of credit.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability to economically meet current and future financial obligations. The Company’s primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments and maturities, securities cash flows and borrowings. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans, securities, and borrowings are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, mortgage prepayments and securities cash flows may be greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates and changes thereto, economic conditions and competition.

The Company regularly reviews the need to adjust investments in liquid assets based upon its assessment of: (1) expected loan demand, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and (4) the objectives of its asset/liability program. Excess liquidity is generally invested in interest earning deposits and short- and intermediate-term securities.

The Company’s most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels of these assets are dependent on the Company’s operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents totaled $385.9 million and $200.3 million, respectively. Securities, which provide an additional source of liquidity, totaled $934.4 million at September 30, 2025 and $915.8 million at December 31, 2024. At September 30, 2025, there were $798.7 million of securities pledged to support wholesale funding, and to a lesser extent certain other types of deposits, of which $104.5 million were encumbered. At December 31, 2024, there were $750.3 million of securities pledged to support wholesale funding, and to a lesser extent certain other types of deposits, of which $65.5 million were encumbered.

The Company’s primary investing activities are the origination and to a lesser extent, purchase of loans and securities. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company’s loan production was $514.2 million and $1.4 billion as compared to $460.6 million and $1.0 billion, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Financing activities consisted primarily of activity in deposit accounts and borrowings. The Company gathers deposits from businesses and individuals through client referrals and other relationships and through its retail presence. The Company has established deposit concentration thresholds to avoid the possibility of dependence on any single depositor base for funds. Total deposits were $7.1 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $1.1 billion, or 18.2%, from December 31, 2024.

At September 30, 2025, interest-bearing deposits were comprised of $5.5 billion of money market accounts and $150.5 million of time deposits. Time deposits due within one year of September 30, 2025 totaled $146.7 million, or 2.1%, of total deposits. At September 30, 2025, the aggregate estimated amount of FDIC uninsured deposits was $1.8 billion. At December 31, 2024, interest-bearing deposits were comprised of $4.5 billion of money market accounts and $125.4 million of time deposits. Time deposits due within one year of December 31, 2024 totaled $118.1 million or 2.0% of total deposits. Non-interest-bearing deposits were 19.5% of total deposits at September 30, 2025, as compared to 22.3% at December 31, 2024. At December 31, 2024, the aggregate estimated amount of FDIC uninsured deposits was $1.6 billion.

The Company has no material commitments or demands that are likely to affect its liquidity other than as set forth below. In the event loan demand were to increase faster than expected, or any other unforeseen demand or commitment were to occur, the Company could access its borrowing capacity with the FHLB or obtain additional funds through alternative funding sources, including the brokered deposit market. At September 30, 2025, the Company had $125.0 million of

41

Table of Contents

Federal funds purchased and $150.0 million of FHLBNY advances. At December 31, 2024, the Company had $210.0 million of Federal funds purchased and $240.0 million of FHLBNY advances. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had cash on deposit with the FRBNY and available secured wholesale funding borrowing capacity of $3.2 billion and $2.9 billion, respectively.

Capital Resources

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company and the Bank met all applicable regulatory capital requirements to be considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines. The Company and the Bank manage their capital to comply with their internal planning targets and regulatory capital standards administered by federal banking agencies. The Company and the Bank review capital levels on a monthly basis. Below is a table of the Company’s and Bank’s capital ratios for the periods indicated:

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

General

The principal objective of the Company’s asset and liability management function is to evaluate the interest rate risk within the balance sheet and pursue a controlled assumption of IRR while maximizing net income and preserving adequate levels of liquidity and capital. The Board of Directors bears the ultimate oversight responsibility for the Company’s asset and liability management function. The Company’s ALCO is responsible for assisting the Board of Directors with this oversight. The ALCO has further assigned responsibility for the day-to-day management of IRR to the CFO, or their designee. The ALCO meets regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of earnings and the market value of assets and liabilities to market interest rate changes and local and national market conditions and market interest rates. That group also reviews liquidity, capital, deposit mix, loan mix and investment positions. Based upon the nature of its operations, the Company is not subject to FX or commodity price risk.

Interest Rate Risk

As a financial institution, the Company’s primary market risk exposure is IRR. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most assets and liabilities, and the fair value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which have a short term to maturity. IRR is the potential for economic losses due to future interest rate changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss of future net interest income and/or a loss of current fair values. The objective is to measure the effect on net interest income and to adjust, as deemed appropriate, the balance sheet to manage the inherent risk while at the same time maximizing income.

The Company manages its exposure to interest rates primarily by prudently structuring its balance sheet in the ordinary course of business. The Company generally originates fixed and floating rate loans with maturities of less than five years. The IRR on these loans is offset to some degree by the mix and structure of the deposit portfolio. On occasion, the Company enters into derivative contracts as a part of its asset liability management strategy to help manage its IRR position.

Net Interest Income At-Risk

The Company analyzes its net interest income sensitivity to changes in interest rates through a simulation model, which estimates what net interest income would be for a one-year period based on current interest rates, and then calculates what the net interest income would be for the same period under different interest rate assumptions.

The following table shows the estimated impact on net interest income for the one-year period beginning September 30, 2025 resulting from potential changes in interest rates, expressed in basis points. These estimates require certain assumptions to be made, including loan and mortgage-related investment prepayment speeds, reinvestment rates, and deposit maturities and decay rates. These assumptions are inherently uncertain. As a result, no simulation model can precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income.

​

43

Table of Contents

Although the net interest income table below provides an indication of the Company’s IRR exposure at a particular point in time, such estimates are not intended to, and do not, provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on net interest income and may differ from actual results. The following table indicates the sensitivity of projected annualized net interest income to the interest rate movements described above (dollars in thousands):

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
At September 30, 2025 | ​
Change in | ​ | Net | ​ | Year 1 | ​
Interest | ​ | Interest | ​ | Change | ​
Rates | ​ | Income Year 1 | ​ | from | ​
(basis points) |  | Forecast |  | Level | ​
+200 | ​ | ​ | 320,810 | ​ | (0.13) | %
+100 | ​ | ​ | 321,562 | ​ | 0.11 | ​
— | ​ | ​ | 321,213 | ​ | — | ​
-100 | ​ | ​ | 323,171 | ​ | 0.61 | ​
-200 | ​ | ​ | 327,193 | ​ | 1.86 | ​

​

The table above indicates that at September 30, 2025, in the event of an instantaneous and sustained parallel upward shift of 200 basis points in interest rates, the Company would experience a 0.13% decrease in net interest income. In the event of an instantaneous and sustained parallel downward shift of 200 basis points in interest rates, it would experience a 1.86% increase in net interest income.

Economic Value of Equity Analysis

The Company also analyzes the sensitivity of its financial condition to changes in interest rates through an EVE model. This analysis measures the difference between predicted changes in the fair value of assets and predicted changes in the present value of liabilities assuming various changes in current interest rates. The table below represents an analysis of IRR as measured by the estimated changes in EVE, resulting from instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in the yield curve (+100, +200, and -100, -200, basis points) at September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands):

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | Estimated | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | Increase (Decrease) in | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | EVE | ​
Change in | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Interest Rates | ​ | Estimated | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
(basis points) (1) |  | EVE (2) |  | Dollars |  | Percent |
+200 | ​ | $ | 1,021,003 | ​ | $ | (56,111) | ​ | (5.21) | %
+100 | ​ | ​ | 1,054,698 | ​ | ​ | (22,416) | ​ | (2.08) | ​
— | ​ | ​ | 1,077,114 | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | — | ​
-100 | ​ | ​ | 1,088,596 | ​ | ​ | 11,482 | ​ | 1.07 | ​
-200 | ​ | ​ | 1,090,256 | ​ | ​ | 13,142 | ​ | 1.22 | ​

(1) | Assumes an immediate uniform change in interest rates at all maturities.

(2) | EVE is the fair value of expected cash flows from assets, less the fair value of the expected cash flows arising from the Company’s liabilities adjusted for the value of off-balance sheet contracts.

​

The table above indicates that at September 30, 2025, in the event of an immediate upward shift of 200 basis points in interest rates, the Company would experience a 5.21% decrease in its EVE. In the event of an immediate downward shift of 200 basis points in interest rates, the Company would experience a 1.22% increase in its EVE.

The preceding simulation analyses do not represent a forecast of actual results and should not be relied upon as being indicative of expected operating results. These hypothetical estimates are based upon numerous assumptions, which are subject to change, including: the nature and timing of interest rate levels including the yield curve shape, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, reinvestment/replacement of asset and liability cash flows, and others. Also, as market conditions vary, prepayment/refinancing levels, the varying impact of

44

Table of Contents

interest rate changes on caps and floors embedded in adjustable-rate loans, early withdrawal of deposits, changes in product preferences, and other internal/external variables will likely deviate from those assumed.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company’s principal executive officer, and the Chief Financial Officer, who is the Company’s principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2025, pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2025. In addition, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
